Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] mm/memory_hotplug: Add support to accept memory during hot-add
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2026 14:22:59 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260112202300.43546-2-prsampat@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260112202300.43546-1-prsampat@amd.com>
Confidential computing guests require memory to be accepted before use.
The unaccepted memory bitmap maintained by firmware does not track
hotplugged memory ranges.
Call arch_accept_memory() during the hot-add path to explicitly validate
and transition the newly added memory to a private state, making it
usable by the guest.
